Finnish companies unfold the whole potential of the British industrial internet

This autumn, a group of Finnish Industrial Internet companies lands in the UK to convince local enterprises with their pioneering expertise.

Already two decades have gone by since first Finnish companies started to utilize the Internet of Things (IoT) in their daily operations. Nowadays, their excellent solutions for the Industrial Internet combine data acquisition and analytics with the latest visualization technologies and services, portraying incisively the Finnish deep-rooted expertise on digital solutions as well as Finland’s long lasting industrial tradition.

The Trade Mission of Finnish companies operating in the Industrial Internet and Big Data domains will take place in London between Monday 30th October and Wednesday 1st November. The event is organised with full support from the Finnish trade promotion agency Finpro and the Embassy of Finland in London.

“When you look at these companies, their expertise is obviously not only about technical efficiency,” says Reijo Smolander, Program Director at Finpro. “Rather, they go beyond the traditional meaning of the Industrial Internet, knowing how to deliver value creation, facilitate innovation as well as new services and business models.”

Individual meetings scheduled with British counterparts across the country will be combined with a high profile networking event in the heart of the City of London.
